Hello all. Brand new to quad, but just bought a Sansui QRX-9001 off eBay with hopes that soon I'll be able to recreate at home the swirling magic I remembered from way back in high school when I first heard "Frankenstein" on a buddy's Pioneer quad system. The QRX-9001 is just the first piece of the puzzle.
Before I bought though, I did spend hours of intensive web-study which pretty much convinced me that the QRX-9001 was the unit to get (thanks to QuadBob!) if you could find one, which amazingly I did right off the bat. I paid $400 (w/shipping) for it, which from what I can tell was a decent price. I also read quite a few testimonials from folks here that sing the praises of the QuadBob restore, which is certainly on my wish list. But frankly with my limited funds I'd rather put my money into setting up the rest of my quad system instead of sinking any more money into the QRX-9001. What I'd like to know is how many here are using a 9001 without any mods, and are you happy with it as is? Thanks.
